Skysports.com Taylor's in dreamland By Alex Livie - Created on 14 Feb 2007 　　Steven Taylor admits that he is living the dream by playing for his home- town club Newcastle. 　　The youngster has established himself as a key figure for The Magpies with his no-nonsense approach to defending, but he admits it is an amazing feeling to be playing for the club he supported as a child. (恩恩~~拿着有你的烫号的球衣我也觉得很爽 XDDD) 　　And the 21-year-old claims he is determined to silence the critics who have derided Newcastle's defence for a number of years. 　　"It's what I have always dreamed of doing, and I still can't quite believe I am doing it," he told the Daily Mail. "I remember going to a European tie against Barcelona as a kid, when Tino Asprilla scored a hat-trick, and thinking it was the best night of my life. Every goal that went in, the noise got louder , and I wondered then what it must feel like to be out there in the middle. (经典比赛总令人印象深刻~~~) 　　"A couple of years later, I got the chance to be one of the ball boys, and the same thought crossed my mind. I stepped on to the pitch to sidefoot the ball to Pavel Srnicek, turned round at the sea of faces and thought: 'If only'. Now Pav's a team-mate, and I'm living out my dream. It's unreal. (能跟当年的门将当队友实在很兴奋，事实上近年一直有回来新堡的球员，真开心) 　　"It's just the most amazing adrenalin rush when you've got a full house screaming at you at St James'. There is nothing like it, nothing." 　　Defending has been Newcastle's Achilles heel for a number of years, but Taylor is determined to play a part in shoring up the back four. 　　"For the past 10 or 15 years, all I have known is our back four being hammered," he admitted. "If I could help persuade people to say a few positive things about us before I've finished, I'd settle for that." -- 希望你能一直留在新堡，下任队长的人选啊！ --
